Here are three ideas for activities you can share with your mom to make her feel extra special this Mother's Day.

Bring a Spa Day to Mom:

Pamper your mother with a relaxing spa day at home. You can create a peaceful atmosphere by lighting candles, playing soothing music, and setting up a foot bath. You can also give your mom a massage or a facial with some homemade natural products. Refer to our blog: “Plan a Self-Care Day” for some more tips on how you can set a calm and relaxing mood for your mom this Mother’s Day.

Plan a Picnic:

Whether it's set up in your neighborhood park or your backyard! Plan a picnic for your family for Mother’s Day. Found your mom the perfect White Elm bag? Here are three things you can pack in your gifted bag!

Snacks: Pack a variety of tasty and healthy snacks for your picnic. Consider including fresh fruit, cheese, and crackers, trail mix, or homemade sandwiches. Don't forget to bring plenty of water and drinks to stay hydrated.

Flowers: A bouquet of fresh flowers can add a special touch to your Mother's Day picnic. You can pick some wildflowers from a nearby field, buy a bouquet from a local florist, or even make your own with flowers from your garden. Arrange them in a vase or mason jar and bring them with you to the picnic.

Blanket: A comfortable and cozy blanket is essential for any picnic. Look for one that is large enough to accommodate your family and made from a soft and durable material. You can also bring some extra pillows or cushions for added comfort. Don't forget to spread the blanket out in a shady spot to avoid getting too much sun.

Take Mom to her favorite brunch spot:

Avoid the hassle of breakfast in bed, and don’t make the kitchen a mess on Mom’s Day! Take her somewhere to celebrate. Who doesn’t love a sundress and mimosa kind of morning to feel appreciated? Pick out her favorite brunch spot and make a reservation. Show up with flowers, gifts, and thank yous and she is bound to have a joyous Mother’s Day filled with family and love. This even gives her a chance to rock her new bag!

Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day!
